Synopsis
Frustrated with babysitting on yet another weekend night, Sarah (Jennifer Connelly), a teenager with an active imagination, summons the Goblins to take her baby stepbrother away. When little Toby actually disappears, Sarah must follow him into a fantastical world to rescue him from the Goblin King (David Bowie). Guarding his castle is the labyrinth itself, a twisted maze of deception, populated with outrageous characters and unknown dangers. To get through it in time to save Toby, Sarah befriends the Goblins, in hopes that their loyalty isn’t just another illusion in a place where nothing is as it seems.

Moviegoers are saying
This cult fantasy classic divides audiences with its bizarre charm - while some are mesmerized by David Bowie's magnetic Goblin King performance and stunning practical effects, others find themselves bewildered by the film's wonderfully weird moments like the infamous 'stinky fart swamp' sequence. Despite mixed ratings averaging around 4/10, viewers consistently praise the incredible set pieces and Bowie's unforgettable presence, making it a polarizing yet endlessly rewatchable experience.

kennedyJan 11, 2016David Bowie tossing toddlers while singing the magic of dance with a goblin puppet choir is one of life's great pleasures.
Colin the dudeA prime example why practical is almost always better than CG. The set pieces in this film are incredible.

Goblin King: "I ask for so little. Just let me rule you, and you can have everything you want. Just fear me, love me, do as I say - and I will be your slave." Me: 👀 👀 👀

bean lovedLabyrinthThis is a great movie. I loved it as a child and I used to want to be Sarah LOL. Especially that scene with her in the pretty dress at that freaky looking party. Watching the movie as an adult though, it was a little slow at times. Great movie, and David Bowie is great in this.

I saw 'Jim Henson', and I knew I was in for a nightmare-fuelled ride. The man made puppetry look organic, and if they do remake this, they better hire his puppet company. Near enough every shot looks dreamlike, and the story and characters are extremely horrifying yet wholesome. The only real…
Carlos Garcia lovedLabyrinthI LOVE THIS MOVIE, amazing music and such a fever dream decade movie that when I was younger I had believed that I dreamt up. Amazing puppeteer work and practical effects and a fun comedic adventure to go on late at night getting lost with Sarah in the Labyrinth

Great energy and creativity went into the construction, production and direction of this movie, but it doesn't have a story that does justice to the production.
